Amigo
Amigo (masculine noun/ feminine form: amiga): friend. Someone you cherish in your heart. There are many Brazilian songs about friends and friendship, but probably one of the most famous of them is "Canção da América", which is a translation/version by Fernando Brant of the song Unencounter, written by Milton Nascimento to a friend of his, the South African Ricky Fataar.

Canção da América
Amigo é coisa para se guardar
Debaixo de sete chaves
Dentro do coração
Assim falava a canção que na América ouvi
Mas quem cantava chorou
Ao ver o seu amigo partir
Mas quem ficou, no pensamento voou
Com seu canto que o outro lembrou
E quem voou, no pensamento ficou
Com a lembrança que o outro cantou
Amigo é coisa para se guardar
No lado esquerdo do peito
Mesmo que o tempo e a distância digam "não"
Mesmo esquecendo a canção
O que importa é ouvir
A voz que vem do coração
Pois seja o que vier, venha o que vier
Qualquer dia, amigo, eu volto
A te encontrar
Qualquer dia, amigo, a gente vai se encontrar
Unencounter
Why did you too leave this town, my friend?
Do you remember that tune
The song you sang to me
Asking about the friends
Who were leaving the town?
You didn't see but I Cried
Because it was my time to go
You were so sad and I didn't know what to do
But to leave with that song leaving you
You were so sad and I didn't know what to do
But to leave with that song leaving you
Do you remember that tune my friend?
I can remember you saying
Maybe those people are searching for their place
Maybe their time isn't here
But you could never understand
Because it was your time to stay
But always the same goes on
Always the same goes on
Now you left the town
And I'm here looking for you
